Propellers

Check out Propellers jewellery shop on Etsy. Propellers is a gathering of 3 different jewellery disciplines by Sylvia Lee (graphic etching), Tanya Lyons (glass) and myself (metalsmith), so happy to be part of this collective. Great photos are by Marc Ouelette!
I hope our little Etsy venture goes well, tell all your friends about it and keep us in mind come Christmas time or anytime ;)

Best Grandma Ever!

Creativity needs nourishment and Gramma is just the one to do it.

Lucky Jamie got to spend some time this week with Gramma while he was visiting from Halifax and they made a few stop motion videos called Jamie and the Dragon and Jamie's Drummer Video together. I am reminded of all the creative things that Mom used to do with us when we were kids. I remember making pottery in the backyard with other kids in the neighbourhood, making busts out of clay, making jewellery and other crafts at the PUC with the senior citizens club in London, creative birthday parties and amazing home made Halloween costumes and beyond. Can't wait to see the Alphabet video!

Thanks for the nourishment Mom. Little Lee is looking forward to his time with Gramma too.

BFF's on the job :) - Moose & Dignan


Moose and Digs take their job very seriously at the workshop. Both have very distinct and important roles to play and it is up to each visitor to find out for themselves.

Custom Engagement Ring


I want to thank my recent enagement ring customer for giving me so much time to perfect his ring. I started over 5 times! I wanted to get it just right and a little something seemed to go wrong with every attempt but the finished piece looks great. So happy to have a customer that values craftsmanship as much as I do. This ring is called the "Weave Ring" it is in 14k White gold and has 6 Blue Sapphires of varied sizes. Cant wait to hear how the proposal goes!!!
